See SAW?
Your McBeardo in the Field is severely digging the Saw VI “motion poster” but not enough to let it just run every time somebody visits this site.
Click here to glean some details at FearNet.com.
My Saw fright franchise fandom goes very specifically like this:
Saw (2004) - Didn’t like it. Loved the puppet, though.
Saw 2 (2005) - Liked it a lot. Maybe even loved it.
Saw 3 (2006) - Completely loved it. One of the best horror films of the 2000s. Liquefied pigs, man!
Saw 4 (2007) - Liked it. Although, with my Brooklyn accent, it was embarrassing to say the title here in the mid-west: “Saw FAWW.”
Saw 5 (2008) - Didn’t like it. Thought it was confusing, dull, and suck-o.
This Saw 6 “motion poster” is pretty goddamned awesome, though. I’m back, baby - riding on the rear axle of that puppet’s tricycle, going “Woo-hoo! SAW! Wooo-Hooooo!”

Ah, so that’s the scoop. I didn’t like SAW and so never moved on but will now have to pick up 2 & 3. Have a little quality Family Time in front of the teevee.

Brainpang - I probably would not have even bothered with SAW 2, but there were projector problems in a theater where I had gone to see something else.
The manager said, please go see whatever else you want AND we’ll give you a free pass to come back.
I wandered into SAW 2, and was delightfully surprised by its inventive sadism and the establishment of Jigsaw as a worthy horror icon.

Wow, I’m amazed - you’re the first person who has the exact same opinions on every one of the Saw films that I do! Up until now, no one else that I’ve met, talked to, or read loves Saw III while I thought it was genius - a henious cinematic vomitorium. As a sidenote on the motion poster, I find it funny that it’s a complete rip-off of the opening credits to Hannibal.

In France, Saw Six sounds exactly like “Saucisse” (sausage), so we don’t even need to have an accent to find that title funny
Great site, keep up the good work.

Wow, I’m glad someone else has the balls to admit to liking the SAW sequels when it is so clearly not cool in the horror fandom to admit it. I thought they just got better after the original too. the second one is pretty solid and the third one is terrific. the fourth is needlessly confusing though, but has some interesting mythology introduced. Five is just a complete mess. But I’m glad some one else is willing to stand up and say these movies are worthwhile. It is so hip to trash them and it tires me to hear it all the time.
